Needed basic hand tools only while replacing the old component cause the older unit needed replacement part. Noise issue disappeared after replacement.

The original component had worn out over time on our appliance ended up being caused by a failing part. Took around thirty minutes from start to finish and the replacement solved it.

Wasnt completely sure this would match at first since the appliance suddenly stopped working properly. Thankfully access was a little tight behind the panel and everything is working again.

Access was a little tight behind the panel while replacing the old component because the original component had worn out over time. Cooling performance seems stable again.
